Samantha Halter

I will purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

I will try new recipe(s) or food preparation method(s) each day, such as canning, pickling, making yogurt, or baking granola bars or bread.

I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own reusable straw.

I will prepare meals at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 10 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.

I will swap out 1 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

I will make my environmental actions visible by sharing about them on my social media networks and the Plastic Free Ecochallenge participant feed.

I will pick up 2 piece(s) of litter each day.
